    Summary

    Harry Dresden was adopted years early but not by Justin Demore. Instead he was adopted and trained by Kincaid the Hell Hound. With a different upbringing Harry is stronger for it. He sees even more of the grey areas and has few ties to the White Council.

    At 16 he and Kincaid are contracted to kill Justin DeMore. Using explosives the take out DeMore and unfortunately his enthralled apprentice. Harry learns about the potential consequences and collateral damage of their work. The upside to their actions was saving potentially disastrous results of having a former Warden as a Warlock and collecting the Spirit of Air and Intellect. Reluctantly Harry is allowed to keep and name the spirit.

    At 22 Harry breaks out on his own as a mercenary. He travels as much as he can but something keeps calling him back to Chicago. In a way it was a home he never really had with his and Kincaid's lifestyle. As he makes a name for himself Harry draws the attention of those who are curious about things left alone.

    Summary

    It's been years since Doctor Ryland Grace saved Erid and Earth. He is content with his life, happy just to teach the next generation of Eridians and have the occasional game night with Rocky and Adrian in his dome. For the most part, nothing changes.

    And that's the problem. Shouldn't Grace, y'know...age? When Rocky indicates that he should be sixty human years old by now, Grace can't reconcile the young face in the mirror with the time that his friend has religiously kept.

    Things get more complicated when another undoubtedly human ship shows up at the edge of the 40 Eridani system. Suddenly Grace is playing ambassador between the two species, and tensions are rising between them. Will this be a successful second contact, or is the peaceful life Grace just wants to live too much to ask for?

    Grace turns 122…

    …and he's pretty sure he shouldn't be alive.

    Summary

    "- and Mr. Grace really took most of the fall for me and honestly I feel kinda bad because he's already in trouble with Principal Morita for that thing he said to the Brooklyn Visions' coach at the last Academic Decathlon and-"

    Peter's voice whittles down to a high pitched whistle, forgetting that he needs to breathe to continue creating more sound.

    After a few more agonizing seconds during which Peter weighs the possibilities that he just gave his mentor and the savior of the world a heart attack, Mr. Stark looks up at him, eyes suddenly wide.

    A beat passes.

    "What's your teacher's name again?"

    AKA, Ryland Grace and Tony Stark hooked up in college. This is fine, until 20 years later, Peter Parker gets involved. It's all downhill from there.
